That is the entire point of this patch. macports-gcc-3.14 is perfectly valid and should result in a dependency on gcc314. Of course the developer would then see a lint error about an unknown port just like they would see if they added 'depends_build port:gcc314' to the Portfile. --Jeremy _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
